Steps To Create This Card

  1. First, I die cut the Billy the Gnome image out and color the pieces in with Copic Markers.

  2. Then, I added a bit of the Arctic Winter Stencil in red on the cap.

  3. Next, I adhered all the pieces of the gnome together with Bearly Art Glue.

  4. After that, I stenciled the Paper Glaze Ombre Pumpkin Spices over the Arctic Winter Stencil to some white cardstock with a spatula and let it dry.

  5. Then, i trimmed down that panel an inch on all sides and popped it up over a card base of Sand cardstock.

  6. Next, I created a sentiment strip using a stamp from the A Gnome Christmas Stamp Set. I stamped it in Versamark Ink over Pitch Black cardstock and melted it with a heat tool. Then I trimmed it down with a guillotine trimmer and adhered it to the front of my card with Bearly Art Glue.

  7. To finish off the project, I glued down some Sands of Time Gem Mix to the front.
